Overview
What if the greatest ghost story ever told began with the ghost himself? Reimagining Charles Dickens' immortal classic from Jacob Marley's perspective, Marley is a sweeping historical fantasy filled with humor, heart, supernatural adventure, and a powerful message about redemption, proving that even the most lost soul may deserve one final chance.
Everyone knows A Christmas Carol. We know Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim, and the three Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. But what about Jacob Marley?
In Marley, Terry Fator flips the classic tale on its head, telling the story through the eyes of Scrooge's long-dead partner—the man shackled in eternal torment, forced to watch as his only friend descends ever deeper into cold-hearted misery. When Marley is granted one impossible chance to intervene, he must somehow awaken Scrooge before it's too late... or doom them both to the same grim fate.
Blending sharp humor, rich heart, playful fantasy, and surprising supernatural twists, Marley transforms and expands Dickens' tale with a memorable cast of celestial beings, unlikely allies, and wonders that lie just beyond the world of the original story. Marley is a fresh, immersive companion that lets you experience the magic of Christmas all over again—through the one character who set everything in motion.
Witty, warm, and brimming with the timeless spirit of redemption and second chances, Marley is the perfect holiday read for anyone who returns to A Christmas Carol year after year. This time, step into the shadows with the man who knows Scrooge best... and discover the untold story behind one of the greatest Christmas tales ever written.
